Delignit AG Reports 4% Revenue Growth in Q1 2026, Confirms Full-Year Guidance

Delignit AG (ISIN DE000A0MZ4B0), a manufacturer of ecological hardwood-based products and system solutions, announced a 4.0% increase in turnover to EUR 18.1 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to EUR 17.4 million in the same period last year. The company reported that the EBITDA margin remained virtually stable at 6.4%, slightly down from 6.7% in the prior year, despite a challenging market environment.

The automotive sector, particularly the light commercial vehicle segment, remained difficult at the start of the 2026 financial year. However, Delignit is pursuing revenue diversification through the expansion of its Technological Applications division, initiated last year, and intensified international activities in markets such as Italy and Asia.

Subject to approval at the Annual General Meeting on 18 June, the company intends to propose an increased dividend of 8 euro cents per share for the 2025 financial year, up from 5 euro cents in the previous year. For the 2026 financial year, the Executive Board confirmed its forecast of revenue around EUR 66 million with an EBITDA margin of 7 to 8%, based on an overall stable development of key target markets despite ongoing uncertainties.

Delignit develops, produces, and sells ecological materials and system solutions from renewable raw materials. It is a global market leader in supplying load compartment protection and load securing systems for light commercial vehicles. The company also serves other technology sectors, such as rail vehicle groups, and its products are used in luggage compartment floors, motorhome interiors, special floors, and building safety applications. Made from European hardwood, Delignit material is CO2-neutral throughout its life cycle, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to non-regenerative materials. The company's commitment to sustainability is highlighted in its "Boost Your Sustainability" initiative, detailed at www.delignit-sustainability.de/.
